This student received low proficiency because they had only explained how slinkys were used as a model for earthquake waves. None of the experiments were explained (which this student completed both) in the paragraph, nor were any of the results shared. The student however did do a good job explaining why slinkys were used as a model for earthquake waves, which is why they received a 2 rather than a 1. This student's room for improvement lies with putting forth more effort in completing written assignments. During the experment, they were actively engaged and participated throughout the experiment so there is no doubt that they fully understand the material. Since this assignment, I've worked with this student on putting forth extra effort in all of their work and have had moderate success with them.
